take a while for the router to scan and catalog your files.
2. Use your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch to search for and download the
free
mydlink
SharePort
app from the App Store.
If you have a QR code reader, you can scan the code for

Wi-Fi name (SSID) and password for your device as printed on the
included Wi-Fi Configuration Card.
